A814880 EVELBPMENTS With the emergence of inter- est in the visual arts, many peo- ple are turning to photography as a form of expression. Some amateur photographers dabble with pocket cameras and await anxiously Fotomat's return of developed and printed 110 and 126 pictures of memorable oc- casions. Others, however, take it more seriously, carefully planning their subjects, de- veloping the negatives them- selves, and printing the final pictures. This type of absorp- tion in a hobby requires pa- tience and a willingness to learn as much as possible about it and the various techniques involved. Since the middle of their ju- nior years, Iim Marihew and Roy Pratt have devoted them- f if 41. pf selves wholeheartedly to pho- tography, lim concentrating on the intricacies of infrared pho- tography, and Roy, refining darkroom techniques, espe- cially the superimposing of negatives and producing of prints from them. As the diffi- culty of the processes in- creased, so did their interest in the hobby. At present, lim is concentrat- ing on infrared photography. Infrared photography works on the premise that every living thing gives off heat and the film picks up that heat in the form of high frequency light which the normal human being cannot see. This kind of photography takes a great deal of time and patience and a good under- standing of the physical field of science, a field in which lim has an interest, and a desire, to enter into in the future. In the middle of Iim's junior year, he guardedly volunteered his services as a yearbook pho- tographer and, after being as- sured that his pictures were good, put his talents to work for the school. lim finished the year as one of the top yearbook photo- graphers. Motivated by the suc- cess with his photographs for the yearbook last year, he tried it again this year. Since that paramount decision, lim and Roy have logged more hours in the darkroom than any other student photographers on the Challenger staff.
